The More Things Change...
Circa September 3, 2004 in the original incarnation of The Blurred Line Blog, I remark that I hadn't done much work lately on BL2. Well, a year later, the same is true (for those of you who don't know, I trashed most of my first draft of the sequel to Blurred Line and started from scratch). Even more telling is this...

Argh! Now there's a number that makes me want to tuck myself away in front of my computer for the next week, doing nothing but writing.
Oh well, if nothing else, I can say this September 4th is better. Last year, I was suffering extreme intestinal cramps from a McChicken eaten at a rest stop McDonald's just after we'd crossed the border into the States.

So I'm new here and was just wondering what 'writing' your working on. Novel? Short Story? Have you been published? When did you start writing?
The writing I'm specifically talking about here is a science fiction novel called Glistening Edges and Right Angles, which is the sequel to my first novel, Blurred Line. I also write short stories from time to time and, at the moment, have one out in submission land and another in development.
My first novel was published, but it was self-published, so it doesn't entirely count. After GERA, which I'll also self-publish, I'll be aiming for a traditional contract.
That's great. I'm getting ready to send out a manuscript to publishers. Wish me luck. It's not a fun process! But I've done my research so hopefully I shall find a publisher.
